April Recap

I participated in the A to Z Challenge again. Tried to double dip, with mixed results.

Cruised Earth Fair one weekend and Art Walk the following weekend. Bought Britt a birthday gift at the latter, so I'm prepared for September. :)

The madre visited.

Received a free book from Australian Erin, as well as a bookshelf animal. First, I thought it was a kangaroo. But it's tailless, so then I thought it's a koala. But the face really looks like a kangaroo, so maybe they just left the tail off for kicks and giggles. The book is the first one above. I liked it, but it's not for everybody.

Couldn't get the wrapper off a plastic egg full of candy, so I used the cork screw part of a Swiss army knife. It worked, but I kind of sliced my hand open.

LOVE Jerzy Kosinski! But... don't know any of the others. John Niven, though, looks like something I might try. "Most exciting British novel since Trainspotting"? Yes, I could do that. Though I confess that I had to read Trainspotting out loud in order to make sense of it :DGuilie @ Quiet Laughter
